I hate borrowing books (the one I mentioned in my previous post was taken quite reluctantly) and would love to be able to borrow them as ebooks to avoid the fear of messing them up... that said, I refuse to borrow ebooks as I don't want to "use up" their lending period, especially since I don't get as much reading time as I'd like and don't necessarily finish them in two weeks, "wasting" their one and only loan.
my worst experience was in high school. i lent a book to a friend, and when i casually asked for it back, they said they LOANED IT TO SOMEONE ELSE. then that someone else loaned it to someone else...you get the idea. i got the book back in tatters. it was extremely rude of them.
